Mann trägt Captain's Essentials Gesichtscreme auf – Hautpflege Routine Männer
The formula

Men's skincare starts beneath the surface

This cream is more than just daily skincare. It is the result of 20 years of barbering experience and three years of development with a German laboratory, formulated for men's skin that performs more each day.

Intensive Moisture

Short and long-chain hyaluronic acids supply the skin on two levels simultaneously with over 20% aloe vera as an active ingredient base.

Well-maintained complexion

Q10 and sesame oil nourish the skin and support a youthful, even appearance.

Calms after shaving

Panthenol soothes irritated skin, while a natural menthol derivative provides an instant fresh kick upon application.

Our Active Ingredient Duo

Hyaluron in face cream for men: two forms, two depths of action

Most creams only use one type of hyaluronic acid. CE Face Cream combines both, for simultaneous surface and deep-acting effects.

↓ Works deep down
Short-chain hyaluronic acid
Low molecular weight · penetrates the skin barrier
Deep Hydration
Small molecules penetrate the outer skin layer and bind moisture deep in the tissue
💧
Long-lasting effect
Moisture reservoirs are formed in deeper layers, lasts all day without needing to be reapplied
Anti-Aging
Supports collagen structure from within, skin appears firmer and more elastic
◯ Acts on the surface
Long-chain hyaluronic acid
High molecular weight · forms protective film
Instant effect
Lays on the skin as a moisture-binding film, immediately noticeably smoother
🛡
Protective barrier
Protects against moisture loss due to external factors, cold, wind, dry heated air
Visible smoothing effect
Fine lines are visibly reduced, skin immediately appears smoother and fresher
🔬
CE Face Cream: The duo others don't have
Captains Essentials combines both forms: deep action and surface protection simultaneously. Developed especially for male skin, which produces more sebum and therefore requires active ingredients that penetrate deeper than a mere surface film.
The Founder

Why a barber developed an anti-aging cream for men

For over 10 years, Ahmed Al-Musawi worked in his barbershop in Düsseldorf. Thousands of men. Thousands of conversations. One question remained: Why is there no skincare that truly delivers on its promises?

„We wanted the first product that men really need."

Application

Applying face cream correctly: A 60-second routine

The CE Face Cream doesn't require an elaborate multi-step routine. Two applications a day are sufficient.

1
💧
Step 1 · Clean
Wash face with clear water or a mild cleanser. Leave slightly damp, do not completely dry.
2
🤲
Step 2 · Apply
Spread a pea-sized amount on your forehead, cheeks, chin, and nose. Gently massage in circular motions.
3
Step 3 · Allow to penetrate
Let it soak in for 60 seconds. The menthol effect starts immediately; the slight cooling sensation is the hyaluronic acid being absorbed.
💡
Why mornings AND evenings?
In the mornings, the cream acts as a protective barrier against environmental influences. In the evenings, it supports nightly cell regeneration – the period when Q10 is most effective.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About Men's Face Cream

An anti-aging cream for men should combine moisture and cell protection, rather than just concealing. Hyaluronic acid visibly plumps up the skin, Q10 and sesame oil support an even complexion, and antioxidants from arctic berries protect against premature skin aging. Consistency is more important than the individual product: anti-aging care works over months, not days. Our Face Cream is designed for daily use, morning and evening.
The best face cream for men is one that suits the structure of men's skin: it is denser, more sebum-active, and stressed daily by shaving. Look for three things: a moisturizing active ingredient that works on two levels, a soothing component to combat shaving irritation, and a texture that absorbs quickly instead of leaving a shine. Our Face Cream combines exactly that: short- and long-chain hyaluronic acid for two levels of moisture, panthenol and sesame oil for irritated skin, over 20% aloe vera as an active ingredient base, and a formula that absorbs without a greasy film.
Yes. For most men, our Face Cream is all they need: moisture, anti-aging, post-shave soothing, and protection – in one product. Apply morning and evening, done.
Wrinkles develop when the skin loses moisture and elasticity. A cream cannot reverse this, but it can visibly soften fine lines: Hyaluronic acid plumps up the skin, making wrinkles less noticeable, and Q10 supports regeneration. However, the most effective lever against wrinkles is not a product, but sun protection. UV radiation is the main cause of premature skin aging. A good cream daily, plus sun protection in summer—in that order.
Yes. That's even ideal. The cream, with over 20% aloe vera and sesame oil, soothes irritated skin, moisturizes, and reduces redness. It replaces a separate aftershave.
Yes. For structural, not marketing reasons. Men's skin is denser and more sebum-active than women's skin, and therefore ages differently: later, but then more quickly. In addition, daily shaving mechanically stresses the top layer of skin and removes moisture. A cream for men's skin is therefore lighter in texture, soothes shaving irritation, and absorbs quickly. A rich cream developed for drier skin often feels heavy and greasy on men's skin.
From 50 onwards, sebum production decreases, and the skin measurably loses moisture and elasticity. A cream can then be richer without being heavy: long-chain hyaluronic acid for the surface, short-chain for the deeper layers, plus Q10 and nourishing oils. Our Face Cream perfectly addresses these needs and works just as well from 30 as it does from 60 – the difference lies more in the amount applied than in the formulation.
No. The formula absorbs in seconds and leaves a matte finish. No greasy film, no shine. That's exactly what it was developed for.
Yes, completely. No animal ingredients, no animal testing. All products are vegan and cruelty-free.
